Worst ESPN Personality Poll

[wessa]

PICK FIVE PEOPLE

Ok, here we go. I have compiled a list of espn personalities that some people find annoying or just suck at what they do. You can choose five people. After two days, I will narrow it down and make the votes more specific. We can finally label one person the worst on-air personality on espn.
Note: I'm sorry if a person that you find annoying isn't on here. This is basically people who annoy me sometimes, but these guys generally suck. Also, these are just current espn people. Thanks to wikipedia for help when compiling this list. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ESPN_personalities

norman chad is the dude who does the world series of poker broadcasts and does all the stupid jokes, i like him but some people think he is realllly annoying. Dee Brown was a former NBAer. I think he might have won the Dream Job where they took former pros and made them into anchors. He is pretty bad on tv, trust me.

[wessa]

the most annoying person on espn goes to stuart scott


FUCK, I MEANT TO PUT HIM ON, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU

[wessa]

the most annoying person on espn goes to stuart scott


ive decided im giving him a first round bye and he is automatically progressing into the second round.

[Dirty Ernie]

see i would put barry melrose on there too but i know some people love him

and meril hodge is a moron as well

[mikeford]

barry melrose is a saint. bite your tongue.

i voted for way more than 5. i hate so many people who work for ESPN.

[lanolynn]

i love the nfl and love people discussing the nfl but sean salsbury makes me want to shoot my tv.

[wessa]

see i would put barry melrose on there too but i know some people love him

and meril hodge is a moron as well

how can you hate barry melrose!? oh man, to each his own i guess.

When this is done i was gonna make a best espn personality poll, he will be on their, ironically probably half of these guys will be on the other list as well, lol

[Sureshot182]

i chose bill walton. the best sports commentators ever are joe buck and al hrabowsky, no contest.

[NetNerdsRevenge]

John Kruk is a moron. he has no right being on baseball tonight.

[Dirty Ernie]

i chose bill walton. the best sports commentators ever are joe buck and al hrabowsky, no contest.

you're going to take heat for that one...as far as best commentators i like jon miller and gary thorne is awesome in hockey

[NetNerdsRevenge]

Joe Buck is terrible. I cant stand him and McCarver (spelling?) The worst thing about the baseball playoffs is that I have to hear them.

[mikeford]

i chose bill walton. the best sports commentators ever are joe buck and al hrabowsky, no contest.

joe buck is the worst fucking announcer ever, next to tim mccarver.

[mikeford]

The worst thing about the baseball playoffs is that I have to hear them.

and the best thing about playoff baseball is muting those idiots and putting on WEEI

[JTrain12]

i dont like Joe Morgan, that fucker thinks he knows everything...Mel Kiper Jr. what a loser, so called draft expert...and I guess Im the only one who likes Stephen A. Smith, he gets a little annoying, but hes not afraid to tell it like it is...

[Yankees' #1 Fan]

stuart scott and his dumb lazy eye

[hockey0001]

Bill Plasche, or however the hell you spell his name.

[Dirty Ernie]

Bill Plasche, or however the hell you spell his name.

wow couldn't agree more...fuckin lisp

[mikeford]

real talk, fuck bill palsake or whatever his name is spelled.

[thejetstolehome]

Joe Buck is terrible. I cant stand him and McCarver (spelling?) The worst thing about the baseball playoffs is that I have to hear them.

McCarver needs to stop. I love baseball but hearing him call a game makes me wanna Van Goh my ears.

[itsjdiggity]

i chose bill walton. the best sports commentators ever are joe buck and al hrabowsky, no contest.

that's borderline blasphemy

[itsjdiggity]

i also really hate Dan LeBatard and Bill Plasche

[wessa]

McCarver needs to stop. I love baseball but hearing him call a game makes me wanna Van Goh my ears.

extra points for the alkaline trio reference, haha

[sweethypocrisy]

how can anyone vote for chris berman? hes awesome.

[sweethypocrisy]

Skip Bayless is a cock. And it shames me, because he went to my school. Dumbass Alumnus.
hahaha. i made a thread not too long ago called skip bayless is a cock.

[livethesounds]

I took these people for the following reasons

Skip Bayless - makes the most non sencical arguments on cold pizza ive ever heard, and seems do belive with passion that hes right.

Steven A. Smith - the guy made it big by basically trashing players, i guess if analists have the balls enough to talk crap about guys that are 4 feet taller than them they would all have their own semi-gay talk show that nobody watches. Rrrrasshhoow Neeesssterovich!

Sean Salsberry - How a guy can sit there and critiqe todays elite players, especially quarterbacks when he was probably one of the all time worsts baffles me. Im a John Clayton fan, and Salsberry talks alot of shit.

Bill Walton - This is one of the only guys that can make me turn off a Dallas Mavericks game. Say what you want about the guys style, but hes a terrible announcer, a one great player but a horrid color guy. and is it just me or are 95% of the games he does Laker games?? (his son plays for them)

Micheal Smith - Tries to suck up to Reali too much on ATH, tries to make big predictions and be out there but to no avail...he sucks

:boxer:

[Brownpants06]

Ultimate most annoying - Terry Bradshaw. shut up about your divorce, nobody cares.

[mikeford]

bradshaw works for fox, dogg.

[weezer182]

bradshaw works for fox, dogg.im pretty sure he is just commenting on sports analyst in general. plus espn isnt in canada

[Bobcat46308]

i would've voted for dan patrick if he was up there, that guy's a cock to everyone he interviews

[Scott Weber]

How the fuck could anyone vote for Harold Reynolds? He's one of the greatest guys on ESPN. Sean Salisbury is the worst. I personally love Stephen A Smith.

[Jesse2]

i think harold reynolds is my favorite on espn.

smith is okay some of the time, but most of the time i think he's a douche.

[Broken Parachute]

Stephen A. Smith, Skip Bayless, John Clayton, Chris Berman, and Norman Chad.

[Broken Parachute]

By the way..I personally love Tony Kornheiser. He's my favorite off this list..and how the hell does Scoop Jackson only have 1 vote? He's pretty annoying. I thought alot of people hated him..AND where the hell is Bob Ryan? He's so annoying.

How could anyone vote for Reali? He's the man. :(

[FOBPrettyNPunk]

Skip Bayless and Woody Paige. They rant so much I hate it.

[Broken Parachute]

Skip Bayless and Woody Paige. They rant so much I hate it.

The only difference between them is that Woody knows what he's talking about.

[mikeford]

LOL@Woody knows what hes talking about. my ass he does.

[Broken Parachute]

LOL@Woody knows what hes talking about. my ass he does.

You think Skip knows anything? I wanna punch him in his face.

[mikeford]

You think Skip knows anything? I wanna punch him in his face.

nope. both of those dudes should get run over.

[Broken Parachute]

nope. both of those dudes should get run over.

Out of the two though..I'd take Woody anyday.

[mikeford]

Out of the two though..I'd take Woody anyday.

okay fine but we didnt have to choose between the two. both of them have their heads so far up their asses its not even funny.

[Brownpants06]

im pretty sure he is just commenting on sports analyst in general. plus espn isnt in canada

you are correct kind sir.

[Clarett'sGreyGoose]

Stephen A. Smith, Skip Bayless and John "How the fuck does a guy like me get to cover football" Clayton got my votes

...Clayton knows jackshit about how football works, and when he provides "inside information" it's usually wrong.

[dekdog11]

woody paige doesnt know shit
and my dad and john kruk both have one ball
so i like him

[ides of march]

How could anyone hate Reali or Kornheiser, those guys are the shit.
One person you forgot to put: Jim Rome. But yeah, vote goes to Bayless.

[Chriz2z]

Shoulda put Pam Ward on this list. I can't stand her calling college football. And for that matter, all women in sports are pretty bad, except for Suzy Kolber and Linda Cohn.

I had the privilege of meeting Linda Cohn, and she said that she hates most women in sports, and thinks that there is only about five good women reporters.

[Chriz2z]

How the fuck could anyone vote for Harold Reynolds? He's one of the greatest guys on ESPN. Sean Salisbury is the worst. I personally love Stephen A Smith.
Harold Reynolds is awesome. I love the CWS and the LLWS and he always calls them. He's pretty amazing.

[JTrain12]

i guess im the only one who doesnt like Harold Reynolds...he talks like baseball is the most amazing sport ever...

[GAD_guy]

woody page, dick vitale and tony korheiser all rule.

[wessa]

i guess im the only one who doesnt like Harold Reynolds...he talks like baseball is the most amazing sport ever...


i started the poll, and he was one of the people i started the poll for. I really don't like him. I think he is boring and he makes everything seem a lot more complicated than it is. Plus he wasn't a great player, .258 lifetime average.

[histrionics22]

He made the most of his talent. He wasnt the most gifted but he was intelligent.

[FondestMemory]

harold reynolds is the shit.

[wessa]

How could anyone hate Reali or Kornheiser, those guys are the shit.
One person you forgot to put: Jim Rome. But yeah, vote goes to Bayless.

i forgot about him. I guess i still thought he was on fox sports, haha.

[Kram41]

It puzzles me that Stephen A. Smith still has a job. I hate Skip Bayless, but he's one of those guys that I still listen to what he has to say and read his stuff because it's funny how off-base he is and to disagree with him. SAS is just annoying in general and I don't think anyone watches his show...

[Doubleya2002]

I hate Mel Kiper Jr. and his stupid hair.

[bigmike]

i voted: Marriotti, walton, berman, and scoop jackson.

[imirish06]

I forget his name, but the one black writer that associates everything with racisim

[wessa]

I forget his name, but the one black writer that associates everything with racisim

that's scoop jackson, or steven a. smith, haha. Jackson is specifically a writer so that is probably the person you are thinking of.

[preppyak]

I hate Mel Kiper Jr. and his stupid hair.
his hair is really annoying to look at, and that's all ESPN is this week with the draft

that's scoop jackson, or steven a. smith, haha. Jackson is specifically a writer so that is probably the person you are thinking of.
haha, yeah, both annoying

[PowderedMilkMan]

how can anyone hate Mel Kiper. He's a great guy who loves what he does. When my dad called to order his draft book, Mel himself answered the phone and talked draft for 30 minutes with my dad.

Dan Patrick is a dick, listen to his radio show, the guy's an arrogant prick. On the other hand, Kornheiser's radio show is great.

and I'll add Mike Patrick to this list, can't go one college basketball game without drooling over Duke.

[ForeversLastDay]

How could you forget Joe Morgan?
